7.58 am - he tried one piece each of beef lung and beef spleen and I ate all the remaining pieces with the sambal which doesn't taste spicy but my stomach could feel the heat after eating the sambal which is sweet. The beef lungs and beef spleen taste is quite strong so I had to eat them with the sambal which I guess is a mixed of belacan, chili and blended deep fried anchovies.
In the above photo, the dark slices are beef lungs and the cubes covered with chili underneath the beef lungs are the beef spleens aka limpa. I think this will be the only time I am eating this eatery's beef lungs and beef spleens. They do taste good but the taste is too strong for me.
